We have investigated the development of crystal morphology and phase in ultrafine titanium dioxide particles. The particles were produced by a droplet-to-particle method starting from propanolic titanium tetraisopropoxide solution, and calcined in a vertical aerosol reactor in air. Mobility size classified 40-nm diameter particles were conveyed to the aerosol reactor to investigate particle size changes at 20–1200°C with 5–1-s residence time. In addition, polydisperse particles were used to study morphology and phase formation by electron microscopy. According to differential mobility analysis, the particle diameter was reduced to 21–23-nm at 600°C and above. Precursor decomposition occurred between 20°C and 500°C. The increased mobility particle size at 700°C and above was observed to coincide with irregular particles at 700°C and 800°C and faceted particles between 900°C and 1200°C, according to transmission electron microscopy. The faceted anatase particles were observed to approach a minimized surface energy by forming {101} and {001} crystallographic surfaces. Anatase phase was observed at 500–1200°C and above 600°C the particles were single crystals. Indications of minor rutile formation were observed at 1200°C. The relatively stable anatase phase vs. temperature is attributed to the defect free structure of the observed particles and a lack of crystal–crystal attachment points. 相似文献

The oxidation of the copper (311) surface at temperatures from 25 to 900° C, and at oxygen pressures from 1 atm to 10−4 torr has been investigated by reflection high energy electron diffraction (RHEED). At room temperature, a poorly organized three-demensional epitaxial layer of Cu2O initially covers the surface, but it disappears when heated in vacuum to 200 °C. Between 300 and 600 °C, two symmetry-equivalent versions of a (4 × 1) two-dimensional surface structure form. Above 500 °C, this structure transforms into another having a hexagonal primitive cell with one axis coinciding with the Cu [011̄] direction and an axial length of 5.212 Å. This is the same cell which has been observed previously with oxidation of copper (100), (111), and (110) faces above 600 °C. Upon oxidation above 600 °C, the surface decomposes into (111) and (100) facets having the copper [010̄] direction in common. 相似文献

Hexagonal and cubic cadmium selenide were prepared from a chemical route by using cadmium chloride and potassium selenium hydride obtained from reaction of selenium powder and potassium boron hydride. The product obtained was thermally treated under argon flux at 300, 500 and 600 °C for 2 h and characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. The X-ray diffraction data were refined by Rietveld method and the structural parameters were determined for the phases of each annealed samples. At 300 °C five phases were identified: Cubic and hexagonal cadmium selenides and the contaminants: Potassium chloride, boron oxide and cadmium boron oxide. At 500 and 600 °C only the hexagonal cadmium selenide phase was identified besides the other above mentioned contaminant. 相似文献

Hysteresis loops of a ferromagnetic material containing internal stresses due to heat treatment are investigated. The 54SiCr6 spring steel was quenched and tempered in the 300-740 °C range. At temperatures from 300 to 500 °C changes in hysteresis curves can be described with a very good accuracy by the effective field model found previously for steels under stress due to direct mechanical loading. The effective field due to tempering had a similar shape with that by direct application of external compressive stress. In the range 300-500 °C the effective field changes linearly with the tempering temperature. These magnetic results are in correspondence with other works showing that in this temperature range the internal stress decreases by more than two orders of magnitude. At temperatures above 500 °C the change of magnetic properties is not monotonous because of influence of different factors—the spheroidization and the coarsening of the cementite, followed by recovery and recrystallization above 600 °C. 相似文献

Dry etching of {0 0 0 1} basal planes of highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) using active nitridation by nitrogen atoms was investigated at low pressures and high temperatures. The etching process produces channels at grain boundaries and pits whose shapes depend on the reaction temperature. For temperatures below 600 °C, the majority of pits are nearly circular, with a small fraction of hexagonal pits with rounded edges. For temperatures above 600 °C, the pits are almost exclusively hexagonal with straight edges. The Raman spectra of samples etched at 1000 °C show the D mode near 1360 cm−1, which is absent in pristine HOPG. For deep hexagonal pits that penetrate many graphene layers, neither the surface number density of pits nor the width of pit size distribution changes substantially with the nitridation time, suggesting that these pits are initiated at a fixed number of extended defects intersecting {0 0 0 1} planes. Shallow pits that penetrate 1-2 graphene layers have a wide size distribution, which suggests that these pits are initiated on pristine graphene surfaces from lattice vacancies continually formed by N atoms. A similar wide size distribution of shallow hexagonal pits is observed in an n-layer graphene sample after N-atom etching. 相似文献

Crystalline nanometer-size copper and copper (I) oxide particle formation was studied by thermal decomposition of copper acetylacetonate Cu(acac)2 vapor using a vertical flow reactor at ambient nitrogen pressure. The experiments were performed in the precursor vapor pressure range of P
prec = 0.06 to 44 Pa at furnace temperatures of 431.5°C, 596.0°C, and 705.0°C. Agglomerates of primary particles were formed at P
prec0.1 Pa at all temperatures. At 431.5°C the number mean size of the primary particles increased from D
p = 3.7 nm (with geometric standard deviation g = 1.42) to D
p = 7.2 nm (g = 1.33) with the increasing precursor vapor particle pressure from 1.8 to 16 Pa. At 705.0°C the primary particle size decreased from D
p = 24.0 nm (g=1.57) to D
p = 7.6 nm (g = 1.54), respectively.At furnace temperatures of 431.5°C and 596.0°C only crystalline copper particles were produced. At 705.0°C the crystalline product of the decomposition depended on the precursor vapor pressure: copper particles were formed at P
prec>10 Pa, copper (I) oxide at P
precleq 1 Pa, and a mixture of the metal and its oxide at intermediate vapor pressures. A kinetic restriction on copper particle growth was shown, which leads to the main role of Cu2 molecule participation in the particle formation. The formation of copper (I) oxide particles occurs due to the surface reaction of the decomposition products (mainly carbon dioxide). For the explanation of the experimental results, a model is proposed to build a semiempirical phase diagram of the precursor decomposition products. 相似文献

The nanoparticle microreactor (NPMR) is a new concept that we have introduced to describe a very small-scale system capable of converting an aerosol precursor to solid particles. The liquid precursor of about 1 µl is injected by a syringe through a septum into a tubular evaporator of 1.0 cm3 in volume with stopcocks at both ends. The evaporator has been preheated by a heating tape to a temperature sufficiently high for vaporization to occur in half a minute. By opening the stopcocks, the vaporized precursor is transported by a carrier gas stream into a quartz tube which is mounted along the axis of a tubular furnace. The nanoparticle aggregates produced in the reactor are sampled by deposition on an electron micrograph grid at the reactor exit. The NPMR was applied first to the synthesis of TiO2 particles by thermal decomposition of titanium tetraisopropoxide (TTIP) in a nitrogen carrier gas, with TTIP concentrations varying from 1.0 to 7.0 mol% or 2.35×10–6 to 1.65×10–5 in TiO2 volume loading, and decomposition temperatures from 300°C to 1000°C. Studies were made with a 2 mm reaction tube and a 4 mm tube with sheath gas. With the 2 mm tube, a considerable fraction of the TTIP precursor was consumed at the wall by surface reaction, resulting in very small particles. With the 4 mm tube, the primary particle size was comparable to that reported in the literature for steady flow experiments using a 22.2 mm tube. Primary particle sizes ranged from 200 to 400 nm. Depending on TTIP concentration and reactor temperature, the particles exhibited a bimodal size distribution, probably due to a two-stage nucleation. A fourfold increase in the gas flow rate had little effect on particle size, indicating that particle growth ended early, within one-fourth the tube length. Residence time in the reactor was between 0.35 and 1.4 s, and total run time about 1 min. The NPMR has potential for rapid assembly of large databases and is adaptable to combinatorial discovery of nanoparticles with novel properties. Design requirements for an ideal aerosol microreactor are discussed briefly. 相似文献

Preparation of nanosized crystalline TiO2 particles at low temperature for photocatalysis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Nanocrystalline titanium dioxide (TiO2) particles were prepared by a modified alkoxide method under acidic conditions at temperatures ranging from 60°C to 90°C. The reaction temperature was used to control the crystalline phase of the TiO2 particles. At 60°C and 75°C rutile was formed whilst at 90°C anatase and brookite were formed.The photocatalytic activity of the prepared particles was tested for the degradation of sucrose. The photocatalytic activities of the prepared nanosized TiO2 were compared to those obtained from Degussa P-25 TiO2 as well as TiO2 crystalline samples prepared using the conventional sol–gel/heat treatment method. At low organic concentrations, Degussa P-25 exhibited higher photocatalytic behaviour than all the prepared particles while, at high organic concentrations, the nanosized TiO2 particles prepared at low temperature displayed an activity comparable to Degussa P-25 but much higher than the heat treated sample. The formation of excess intermediates during the degradation of higher sucrose loadings is believed to hinder the photoactivity of Degussa P-25, while the prepared TiO2 particles are able to maintain their activity for the degradation of the intermediates of sucrose. 相似文献

La0.6Sr0.4Co0.2Fe0.8O3 − δ-Ce0.8Gd0.2O1.9 (LSCF-CGO) thin films obtained by spray pyrolysis of a single precursor solution were investigated by XRD, TEM and impedance spectroscopy at annealing temperatures ranging from 500 to 900 °C. Films annealed at 600 °C contained a mixture of amorphous regions and crystalline regions composed of fine crystallites (< 5 nm). Annealing above 600 °C increased the ratio of crystalline to amorphous material, led to the segregation of the films into distinct LSCF and CGO phases, and promoted grain growth. The electrical behavior of the films depended on annealing temperature. At testing temperatures of 400 °C and below, the polarization resistance of films with lower annealing temperatures was larger than the polarization resistance of films with higher annealing temperatures. However, at testing temperatures of 500 °C and above the polarization resistance of films with lower annealing temperatures was equal to or lower than the polarization resistance of films with higher annealing temperatures. This was reflected by the activation energy that decreased with increasing annealing temperature. The varying electrical behavior may be related to microstructural changes that caused bulk diffusion to be the rate-limiting step in films with lower annealing temperatures and oxygen dissociation to be the rate-limiting step in films with higher annealing temperatures. 相似文献

Detailed transmission electron microscopy characterization of HfO2 films deposited on Si(1 0 0) using atomic layer deposition has been carried out. The influence of deposition temperature has been investigated. At 226 °C, a predominantly quasi-amorphous film containing large grains of cubic HfO2 (a0 = 5.08 Å) was formed. Grain morphology enabled the nucleation sites to be determined. Hot stage microscopy showed that both the cubic phase and the quasi-amorphous phase were very resistant to thermal modification up to 500 °C. These observations suggest that nucleation sites for the growth of the crystalline cubic phase form at the growing surface of the film, rather homogeneously within the film. The films grown at higher temperatures (300-750 °C) are crystalline and monoclinic. The principal effects of deposition temperature were on: grain size, which coarsens at the highest temperature; roughness with increases at the higher temperatures due to the prismatic faceting, and texture, with texturing being strongest at intermediate temperatures. Detailed interfacial characterization shows that interfacial layers of SiO2 form at low and high temperatures. However, at intermediate temperatures, interfaces devoid of SiO2 were formed. 相似文献

Highly ordered titanium oxide (TiO2) nanotubes were prepared by electrolytic anodization of titanium electrodes. Morphological evolution and phase transformations of TiO2 nanotubes on a Ti substrate and that of freestanding TiO2 membranes during the calcinations process were studied by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and X-ray diffraction microscopy. The detailed results and mechanisms on the morphology and crystalline structure were presented. Our results show that a compact layer exists between the tubular layer and Ti substrate at 600 °C, and the length of the nanotubes shortens dramatically at 750 °C. The freestanding membranes have many particles on their tubes during calcinations from 450 to 900 °C. The TiO2 nanotubes on the Ti substrate transform to rutile crystals at 600 °C, while the freestanding TiO2 membranes retain an anatase crystal with increasing temperature to 800 °C. The photocatalytic activity of TiO2 nanotubes on a Ti substrate annealed at different temperatures was investigated by the degradation of methyl orange in aqueous solution under UV light irradiation. Due to the anatase crystals in the tubular layer and rutile crystals in the compact layer, TiO2 nanotubes annealed at 450 °C with pure anatase crystals have a better photocatalytic activity than those annealed at 600 °C or 750 °C. 相似文献

Red-emitting Eu3+-doped Gd2O3 spherical powders were directly precipitated using a polyol method. The as-synthesized powders consist of agglomerates with a spherical shape and a size ranging between 0.4 and 0.6 μm. Each agglomerate is nanostructured and consists of a packing of nanocrystallites (3–5 nm) of a bcc oxide phase whose luminescence presents original features in comparison with bulk materials. The powders were further calcinated and the size of both crystallites and agglomerates, the crystalline structure and the luminescence were studied as a function of the annealing temperature. For temperatures lower than 900 °C, the samples obtained are highly crystalline and possess the classical Eu3+ red luminescence. For optimized temperature, the morphology of the particles can be preserved leading to spherical, dense, luminescent and almost monodisperse oxide powders, 0.5 μm in size.

Gold nanoparticles are of great interest for various nanoelectronic applications, e.g., for making single electron transistors or very fine leads to molecular size entities. For this and other applications, it is important that all particles have controllable size and shape. In this paper, we describe the production of size-selected gold aerosol particles in the 20nm range made by evaporation in a high-temperature tube furnace and subsequent size selection. To obtain spherical particles, it was necessary to reshape the particles at high temperature, which was investigated for temperatures between 25°C and 1200°C. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy showed that the degree of crystallinity became higher for higher reshaping temperature. During reshaping at high temperature, an anomalous charging behavior was discovered, whereby negatively as well as positively charged particles became multiply negatively charged. Possible mechanisms for explaining this thermally activated phenomenon are discussed. 相似文献

We demonstrate a preparative method which produces highly monodisperse Pt-nanoparticles of tunable size without the external
addition of seed particles. Hexachloroplatinic acid is dosed slowly to an ethylene glycol solution at 120 °C and reduced in
the presence of a stabilizing polymer poly-N-vinylpyrrolidone (PVP). Slow addition of the Pt-salt will first lead to the formation of nuclei (seeds) which then grow further
to produce larger particles of any desired size between 3 and 8 nm. The amount of added hexachloroplatinic acid precursor
controls the size of the final nanoparticle product. TEM was used to determine size and morphology and to confirm the crystalline
nature of the nanoparticles. Good reproducibility of the technique was demonstrated. Above 7 nm, the particle shape and morphology
changes suddenly indicating a change in the deposition selectivity of the Pt-precursor from (100) towards (111) crystal faces
and breaking up of larger particles into smaller entities. 相似文献

Sm-Co based nanomagnetic material was synthesized by means of a Pechini-type sol-gel process. In this method, a suitable gel-precursor was prepared using respective metal salts and complexing agent such as citric acid. The gel-precursor was dried at 300 °C and then subjected to various reductive annealing temperatures: 350, 500 and 600 °C. The nanopowders so obtained were characterized for their structure, phase composition and magnetic properties. FT-IR studies on the gel-precursor showed the binding of metal cations with the citrate molecules in the form of metal-citrate complex. The gel-precursor, which was annealed at 350 °C showed the presence of both meta-stable cobalt carbide (Co2C, Co3C) and Co3O4 phases; while the sample annealed at 500 °C indicated the sign of SmCo5 phase. Upon increasing the reductive annealing temperature to 600 °C, crystalline phase such as fcc-Co and Sm2C3 were formed prominently. FE-SEM analysis revealed the change in sample morphology from spherical to oblate spheres upon increasing the annealing temperature. VSM measurements demonstrated ferromagnetic nature at room temperature for all the nanopowders obtained irrespective of their after reductive annealing temperature. 相似文献

A solid-precursor vaporizer for laboratory-scale aerosol reactors has been developed and successfully tested on the synthesis of magnesium aluminate (MgAl2O4) nanoparticles by thermal decomposition of magnesium aluminum tert-butoxide (Mg[Al(OtBu)4]2), a single-source precursor, in a furnace aerosol reactor. The reactor temperature was varied from 600 to 1000°C with the precursor concentration at 6.4 × 10−6 mol/l. The atomic ratio of Al to Mg of produced particles was determined by XPS to be 2:1 and the primary particle size ranged from 28 to 55 nm. As-produced particles were all amorphous, but the particles further heated to 1000°C exhibited crystalline MgAl2O4 structures. 相似文献

Magnetic polydivinylbenzene (PDVB)/magnetite micrometer-sized particles of narrow size distribution were prepared by entrapping Fe(CO)5 within the pores of uniform porous PDVB particles, followed by the thermal decomposition of the encapsulated Fe(CO)5 at 300 °C in a sealed cell under inert atmosphere. Magnetic Fe onion-like fullerene micrometer-sized particles of narrow size distribution have been prepared by the thermal decomposition of the PDVB/magnetite magnetic microspheres at 1100 °C under inert atmosphere. The graphitic coating protects the elemental iron particles from oxidation and thereby preserves their very high magnetic moment for at least a year. Characterization of these unique magnetic carbon graphitic particles was also performed. 相似文献

Tin oxide (SnO2) thin films were grown on Si (1 0 0) substrates using pulsed laser deposition (PLD) in O2 gas ambient (10 Pa) and at different substrate temperatures (RT, 150, 300 and 400 °C). The influence of the substrate temperature on the structural and morphological properties of the films was investigated using X-ray diffraction (XRD), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). XRD measurements showed that the almost amorphous microstructure transformed into a polycrystalline SnO2 phase. The film deposited at 400 °C has the best crystalline properties, i.e. optimum growth conditions. However, the film grown at 300 °C has minimum average root mean square (RMS) roughness of 3.1 nm with average grain size of 6.958 nm. The thickness of the thin films determined by the ellipsometer data is also presented and discussed. 相似文献

We have prepared SrTiO3/BaTiO3 thin films with multilayered structures deposited on indium tin oxide (ITO) coated glass by a sol-gel deposition and heating at 300-650 °C. The optical properties were obtained by UV-vis spectroscopy. The films show a high transmittance (approximately 85%) in the visible region. The optical band gap of the films is tunable in the 3.64-4.19 eV range by varying the annealing temperature. An abrupt decrease towards the bulk band gap value is observed at annealing temperatures above 600 °C. The multilayered film annealed at 650 ° C exhibited the maximum refractive index of 2.09-1.91 in the 450-750 nm wavelength range. The XRD and AFM results indicate that the films annealed above 600 ° C are substantially more crystalline than the films prepared at lower temperatures which were used to change their optical band gap and complex refractive index to an extent that depended on the annealing temperature. 相似文献

At room temperature deposited Ge films (thickness < 3 nm) homogeneously wet CaF2/Si(1 1 1). The films are crystalline but exhibit granular structure. The grain size decreases with increasing film thickness. The quality of the homogeneous films is improved by annealing up to 200 °C. Ge films break up into islands if higher annealing temperatures are used as demonstrated combining spot profile analysis low energy electron diffraction (SPA-LEED) with auger electron spectroscopy (AES). Annealing up to 600 °C reduces the lateral size of the Ge islands while the surface fraction covered by Ge islands is constant. The CaF2 film is decomposed if higher annealing temperatures are used. This effect is probably due to the formation of GeFx complexes which desorb at these temperatures. 相似文献
